kbuild: Fix include path in scripts/Makefile.modpost
commit 23a0cb8e upstream. When building an external module, if users don't need to separate the compilation output and source code, they run the following command: "make -C $(LINUX_SRC_DIR) M=$(PWD)". At this point, "$(KBUILD_EXTMOD)" and "$(src)" are the same. If they need to separate them, they run "make -C $(KERNEL_SRC_DIR) O=$(KERNEL_OUT_DIR) M=$(OUT_DIR) src=$(PWD)". Before running the command, they need to copy "Kbuild" or "Makefile" to "$(OUT_DIR)" to prevent compilation failure. So the kernel should change the included path to avoid the copy operation.
